A zz4 crate engine is a decent replacement engine that will bolt in easily. You could also find a used L98 & computer/wiring to rebuild if you want fuel injection. A LS1 will not bolt directly in, and most likely would cost more than either of the two I just mentioned, although it will put up much more power.

Aren't LS1s a nightmare with all the electrical components. I agree the ZZ4 is a very good choice as well.
